Finished Album

The cover is finished and pages added to the Holiday Album.  Pictured below are some of the pages put into this book.

As posted previously:  The base is a Snap 6x8 with a black binder.  The die is from Memory Box and was cut in three colors of mirror paper: red, green and gold.  A Spellbinders oval was used to make the frame.  The first cut was in paper from Simple Stories DIY Christmas.  The candles were glued onto the actual cover of the album but framed in the red mirror paper.  The sentiment is Tim Holtz "Handwritten Holidays 2" was embossed in gold.  There are several other pages that go in this album but they are similar to the ones pictured.  Hope you enjoy as this was fun to make.

Album work in progress

Not a card this time (but thinking this could be one in the future), but the cover to a Christmas Album.  Just a note to say the bow is not done in this picture as it does look a little unfinished.  The base is a Snap 6x8 with a black binder.  The die is from Memory Box and was cut in three colors of mirror paper: red, green and gold.  A Spellbinders oval was used to make the frame.  The first cut was in paper from Simple Stories DIY Christmas.  The candles were glued onto the actual cover of the album but framed in the red mirror paper.  The sentiment is Tim Holtz "Handwritten Holidays 2" was embossed in gold.  A start now just to do the inside.  Not sure if this ribbon is  staying yet or not.  Will keep you updated as I add more to the book.  Hope you enjoy

Happy Holiday's

As we enter this festive week (and a busy one) I would like to wish all my blog friends a Very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Christmas greetings

A quick and simple post for another holiday card idea.  This is a  5.5 square card with two smaller squares.  The edges of the two smaller squares were rubbed on a Versa Mark embossing pad and gold powder added, then heat set.  The greeting was from one of many in the holiday stamp stash.  After the card was put together a purchased poinsettia was added to finish off the card.  Hope you enjoy
